The bad news is that the "Friday the 13th" game release date will not be happening this year. The good news, however, is that the game will indeed be releasing next year but is now packed with more features making it definitely worth the wait.
Recently, Gun Media made an announcement that the highly anticipated "Friday the 13th: The Game" release date has been moved next year. However, the move comes with a very valid reason, the addition of mores feature that will undoubtedly enhance the "Friday the 13th" Game gameplay when it releases.
Single Player Against AI Bots
Among the exciting features to be offered is the single player mode which is set to be launched a little later after the "Friday the 13th" game release date arrives next year, as previously reported by GamenGuide. Apparently, the single player mode is the number one clamor from gamers who foresaw the future need where they might want to progress and play the game on their own rather than wait for companions.
However, the inclusion of the AI bot components into the game, who will be playing as the rest of the counselor or Jason, would mean additional coding, basically a larger game. As such, developers Gun Media and Illfonic had to reschedule the "Friday the 13th: The Game" release date.
Additional Playable Character, New Map
Other exciting features to be introduced with the arrival of the "Friday the 13th" game release date is the addition of one playable character and a new map. Tommy Jarvis will be joining the lineup of playable characters which originally only included the ten camp counselors plus Jason. Furthermore, the enhanced game will include one big map known as Packanack Lodge.
'Friday the 13th' Game Beta
However, gamers who have preordered the game or supported it via Kickstarter need not worry. They will still be able to play the game months ahead of the rest when the "Friday the 13th" game beta releases, which is expected to happen sometime this month.
'Friday the 13th: The Game' Release Date
For those who prefer to wait the official "Friday the 13th" game release date, the multiplayer component of the game, along with the character Jarvis and the map Packanack Lodge will release by spring next year. On the other hand, the single player mode will arrive by summer of 2017. Stay tuned to GamenGuide for updates.
